Some notes on web pages...

Redirecting to a new domain...

Here’s how to set up so you get forwarded after reaching a page. You can use the refresh meta tag to automatically load a page after x seconds.

	<META http-equiv="REFRESH" content="5; url=http://www.echoecho.com">

In the example www.echoecho.com is loaded after 5 seconds. Below are a few examples on using this tag.

The most common use of the REFRESH meta tag is for redirection. Typically when a site changes the domain name. If you take a site down from the old domain—people who go to there from bookmarks will get an error:

	Error 404 - File Not Found.

Instead you should place a page on the old domain saying something like:

	This site has moved. Please wait and you will be taken
	to the new domain. Remember to update your bookmarks.

If you keep this page on the old domain for a few months you will not loose the visitors that already have your site bookmarked with the old domain name.
